“Euphonity rocks!” bellowed the Banking and Insurance students of Vivekanand Education Society (V.E.S) College, Chembur, and the crowd cheered with them. ‘Euphonity- entering into new dimensions’, was the first intercollegiate event, organised by them on February 10.

Although the event was a huge success the students very upset as their celebrity guests failed to turn up at the venue. “Music composer Shekhar had promised that he would get Vishal and either Priyanka Chopra or Ritiesh Deshmukh for the event, but Shekhar is down with jaundice. So, nobody has turned up,” says Yash Ved, a third year Banking & Insurance student.

Inspired by Rang De Basanti, the students of V.E.S, were given a chance to do creative wall painting (graffiti) in the campus of the college, which had slogans like ‘Generation awakens’, ‘Bhangra rocks’ etc. “This is a very good chance for the students show up their creativity,” said visiting faculty, Naz Chougley. Business quiz, ad mad show, brainstorming and War of DJ’s were the few competitions organized by them. Colleges like St. Andrews, S.I.E.S (Sion), K.J. Somaiya etc. and many other colleges that offer Banking & Insurance or Accounts & Finance courses participated in the event.

“The event went on really well. We have got the best response in comparison to the events organized by the other departments,” claimed Kedar, head of designing. All the competitions held were related to their course like the Business Quiz was based on general knowledge of the banking and insurance industry. The Impromptu ad mad show was to prepare an advertisement to make their product catchy. Brainstorming required the participants to create service or product that can cater to various individuals or group needs. Keeping in tune with the happening world of music albums and video, this event gave all the budding DJ’s to showcase their talent in the war of DJ’s and the other students danced on their tunes.

The entire event gave the participants a chance to be creative and convert their imagination in to reality.
